Possibly TDK’s best game I thought. He got outmuscled a couple of times but used his agility to advantage. Q4 marking around the ground was sublime given the stage of the game & the 5d break.
Fisher seems to have improved his output and features in many offensive waves. His positioning around goals is just smart.
LoB is growing in confidence. He knows his role and has developed a more competitive attack on the ball. Especially loved his pressure on the ball carrier. Didn’t always lay a tackle but got enough contact to effect the disposal.
A lot of the boys are doing those extra pressure acts, which seems to be expected downfield, resulting in improved connection. At long last it looks like players know their role, know each other’s role, and have the presence to read and respond to advantage.
While Crippa and Cerra had less of it. What they did with it was crucial and complemented the inside expertise of Hewett and Bam Bam. I don’t like Crippa in the ruck!
Our ex-swans had a day out, which hopefully rubbed salt into the swans wounds.
I’ve admired JK but the footage of the hit on Doc is damming. The response to the hit, however, was fast, fierce, and united. No surprise who was on the bottom of the pack of the scuffle. Liam Stocker.
Charlie had a big task and rose above it. Six times with change for the mozzies. They were busy and will only get better. Gee Durdin of the Corey kind (for BT), is a beauty.
Speaking of BT. Did he call Walshy Lochie in the post match interview? He looked so uninterested and uncomfortable during the interviews. He needs to bugger off if he can’t provide neutral, informative, accurate, entertaining comments. I noticed roaming Brian was cancelled ? Not that I would have watched it.
That was our best performance under great duress. It’s surreal being 8-2 at this stage of the club’s evolution and the state of our sick bay. What makes me quietly confident is that different challenges have been met with different adaptations. No coach, no problem. No ruck, no problem. No KPD and KPF, no problem. These are signs of resilience. Resilient clubs have sustained success.
Finally. I was disgusted by the AFL’s incompetent management of the coin toss in the opening round of SDNR. I really felt for Sid. I hope he received a genuine apology.
